Hothouse Flowers - Thing Of Beauty lyrics

Look out your window on a winter's morning Your breath is steam and there's frost falling And the sun casts a spell upon the road A thing of beauty is not a thing to ignore Great song of beauty Stand by the river on a moonlight evening Lovers are loving and grievers are grieving And the water does a dance upon the stones I sit and listen, I will not ignore A thing of beauty is not to be ignored Can't you see (can't you see) The secrets of the dawn? (thing of beauty) Can't you feel (can't you feel) Can't you feel it in the place that you come from? (thing of beauty) Face up to morning Face up to day Face up to reality And face up to your ways There is so much to breathe, see, know, understand and do And I believe in things of beauty Do you, do you? Can't you see Can't you see it in the secrets of the night? (thing of beauty) Can't you feel Can't you feel it in the wonder of a birds first flight? (thing of beauty) Can't you see, can't you see it See it in the gentle falling of the snow? Can't you feel, can't you feel Like a mother feels when she knows her child has grown? Come to conclusions I believe we all do To look around us and the taste of the fruit Set free your morals It should be written on every door A thing of beauty is not a thing to ignore Can't you see (can't you see) It in the magic when a boy meets a girl? (thing of beauty) Can't you feel it, can't you feel it In the wonders of the changes of the world? (thing of beauty) Can't you see (can't you see) It when right comes out of wrong? (thing of beauty) Can't you feel (can't you feel) It as it goes on and on? (thing of beauty) Can't you see (can't you see) It in what's left beneath the ground? (thing of beauty) Can't you feel (can't you feel) It in the mystery of sound? (of sound, thing of beauty) Can't you see Can't you see it in the glory of the sun? (thing of beauty) Can't you feel, can't you feel it in the wonder of the one... One Can't you feel one and only? One and only Can't you feel it, can't you feel it, feel it Thing of beauty?
